Riposante are one of the most sturdy and supportive compression tights we've seen this year. These tights are a 40 denier making them great for multiple seasons, but they are far sturdier than any 40 denier item. They has reinforced toes, heels and brief and use double covered elastane so they stretch and stretch much further than most tights. They also offer graduated compression, so your ankles get the most benefit, as they are the part of your leg that gets the most use throughout the day.
